Take out Searchlights Easily

White Acropolis

When playing as sonic (not on snowboard) to destroy a searchlight easily go up to the tower and keep pressing A - if done right you should bounce to the top and smash the searchlight note: They will repair after a while.

Tap Hovering

When playing as E-123 Omega

Omega's hover sucks, but you can hover for a good few minutes at a time by repeatedly tapping "A". When tap hovering, you are free to move around without losing any substantial height at all, great for dusty desert zone!

How to Beat Egg-Cerrebrus

This guy is a giant dog that eggman controls. He is not that hard to defeat. While he runs around the level you chase after him and when he stops you jump and grind up his tail and jump to the intennae on his head. When you do this you have control of him and run him into on of the statues. Do this 3 or 4 times. But the longer the battle lasts the more resistant he gets when you try to run him into the wall.

How to Beat Silver

Silver is a silver version of shadow. He is probably one of the hardest bosses in the game. In order to beat him you have to have the move that allows you to slide while running. What you do is run around the level 3 or 4 times avoiding the boxes he throws at you. Then while running hold X and run at silver, but don't get to close or he will use is psychic powers to throw you across the level. When you think your close enough let go of X and sonic will slide hurting silver. Repeat this 5 or 6 times and he will be through in no time.
